Look at the steepness of those slopes
Not quite what I had in mind, here is a blog that has some really interesting collection of construction mistakes, only a handful of them are technical errors. The image below is definitely the mother of all construction error, can you imagine the amount of effort wasted?

And from Life without building we have here another construction error, this is definitely the builder’s fault, then again it could be the architect’s fault as well – for not monitoring the project accordingly.
Sometimes, it is us human with our arrogant attitude and the resistance towards technology that causes all these unnecessary construction mistakes, gone are those days where the only colour available for drawing are black and blue, isn’t it time we introduce some colours into the technical drawings? Let’s say we separate the lines into two categories, one for the building outline and another colour for specifications/arrows/highlights or denotes.

Architectural works, in the material form of buildings, are often perceived as cultural symbols and as works of art. Historical civilizations are often identified with their surviving architectural achievements.
- ^ Architect - An architect is a person trained in the planning, design and oversight of the construction of buildings. To practice architecture means to offer or render services in connection with the design and construction of a building, or group of buildings and the space within the site surrounding the buildings, that have as their principal purpose human occupancy or use.
- ^ Pritzker Architecture Prize - The Pritzker Architecture Prize is awarded annually by the Hyatt Foundation to honour "a living architect whose built work demonstrates a combination of those qualities of talent, vision and commitment, which has produced consistent and significant contributions to humanity and the built environment through the art of architecture".
